Initiatives Update

Francisco Guerrero and Nate Zurawski of WIPPS

Wisconsin’s status as a politically divided state often puts us in the national spotlight.

Founded in a time of political upheaval and amid the Great Depression, Wisconsin Farmers Union (WFU) was chartered in 1930 by farmers who recognized they were stronger together.

Climate change is real. That’s not news to elders in Wisconsin’s Native American communities. They see it, they feel it, and they are taking action to deal with it.

The e-mail arrived the afternoon before the event: “CISCO system is down at Hotel Le Méridien in Paris. We need to find another telepresence center.”

We all know that words have power. But there is an equal amount of power in the absence of words.
